Chapter 104: The Fish and the Headless Corpse

There were no roads on the riverbank, there were already potholes, and with the seriously injured Qin Town, Lu Yan could only slow down and bypass those big obstacles.

Yan Mingxu used the medicine and bandages he had now in the car to give Qin Zhen first aid measures as much as possible, but this was only temporary.

If he doesn't get treatment for a long time, Qin Zhen will only have a dead end.

An hour later, the jeep finally drove out of the deep stream and came to the river beach.

Scattered buildings began to appear in the surrounding area, some of which stood by the river, hanging fishing nets that had rotted from the wind and sun.

It's just that this place is remote, and most of the residents along the river are not in good condition, so it is difficult to find a boat that can be used.

Occasionally, I saw one or two fishing boats, all of which were extremely simple, and because there was no one to maintain them for a long time, the bottom of the boats was rusty and leaked in.

I walked four or five kilometers in a row, but I didn't see a working boat.

"Two kilometres further on, and if we can't find it again, we'll have to turn around and take a detour."

Qin Zhen couldn't stand the delay even for a minute.

After walking for about another kilometer, I finally saw the river port in front of me, and some large fishing boats were docked inside.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Yan stepped on the accelerator and drove quickly.

As soon as the car stopped, everyone noticed that there were a lot of jumping fish on the river beach.

Originally, no one cared, but it was not until they got closer that everyone could see clearly.

Many of these jumping fish have rotted, and the dark green bile is all splashed on the ground as the fish beats.

This is an infected fish, long dead, shriveled and shriveled, and I don't know how long it has been jumping here.

At this time, a fish suddenly jumped to Lin Wanwan's feet, and Lin Wanwan looked down.

The head of this fish has rotted and exposed its skull, and the strange thing is that its eyes have not fallen, and in the rotten eye sockets, a small white dot is shaking with the beating of the fish, and it looks at her in a daze.

It's indescribably weird and terrifying.

Lin Wanwan was uncontrollably jumped, and silently took a few steps back.

Who knew that this fish suddenly jumped and pounced towards Lin Wanwan!

Lin Wanwan saw clearly that this fish actually had teeth!

However, it was too late to react now, and at the last moment, a gunshot rang out next to him!

The fish that jumped up was violently smashed on the head and smashed to the ground like a puppet with a broken string.

Lin Wanwan's heart was beating violently, and he turned his head to look-

Lu Yan was sticking the gun back into his waist.

After this shot, these fish, which were still beating in a daze, instantly became agitated, surging densely, and jumped desperately towards the group.

But in the end, it is a creature in the water, which is clumsy and slow on the shore.

Lu Yan casually kicked away the rotten fish that jumped in front of him without changing his face, and walked towards the port:

"The waters here are infected with the virus, be careful not to touch them, especially where there are wounds."

Lu Yan speculated that there was at least one large source of pollution in the vicinity, because the pollution only occurred in the lower reaches of the river, and the water quality upstream was normal.

Wait a minute......

Lu Yan suddenly stopped, and something seemed to flash through his mind.

What kind of place is there a large source of pollution?

In such a remote place, and by the river, it is basically impossible for large shopping malls and industrial bases, and the most likely is some just-needed buildings.

For example—

Hospital.

People in the last days will faint before turning into zombies, and most of the family members send the infected to the hospital, which leads to a large number of infected people in each hospital.

The state attaches great importance to medical care, and in recent years it has also strengthened construction, and in remote places, even if there are no large hospitals, at least there will be a health station.

The more Lu Yan thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was very likely, Qin Zhen's injury was so serious, at least he needed painkillers to relieve his pain.

It seems that a gamble is inevitable.

"Xiao Yan, you come."

Lu Yan immediately made a decision and turned his head to call.

Yan Mingxu immediately trotted over.

Lu Yan continued:

"There should be a hospital or health post nearby."

Yan Mingxu's eyes lit up, and he looked at Lu Yan with excitement on his face.

Lu Yan nodded and said:

"You go with me and see if I can find a way to get some medicine for Qin Zhen, otherwise I'm afraid that he won't be able to hold on like this if he goes on like this."

Mu Tang, who was squatting aside and curiously studying the zombie fish, heard Lu Yan's words, threw away the fish that was still struggling frantically in his hand, ran over and asked:

"Shall I go too?"

Lu Yan shook his head, those two students are still here, it would be bad if they all left.

"Mud comes with us, you stay here with the two of them, and see if there are any boats that work."

“…… All right. Mu Tang was a little disappointed, but it was rare that he didn't have a temper.

She knew that Qin Zhen was not in a good state, Qin Zhen was usually very good to her, and often talked to her, she still hoped that Qin Zhen would live well.

Lu Yan agreed when she saw that she was so easy, and was a little surprised, and then smiled with relief.

The little zombie is really getting more and more sensible.

Touched her head, smiled and praised:

"Good."

Then looked up at Ren Yu:

"Will you sail?"

Ren Yu nodded hesitantly:

"I've only ever driven the kind of speedboat at sea."

"It's good to know how to start, take them to find a boat, see if there are any boats that can be used, and then find a way to pump out the oil from other ships and add it to it."

Lu Yan took an oil drum and a long pipe from the space and handed them to him:

"Siphon principle, you know?"

Ren Yu took the thing and nodded.

Lu Yan finally said to Mu Tang:

"We'll hurry back and stay safe."

Then he took Yan Mingxu and the mud and walked briskly towards the building complex not far from the river beach.

The remaining three decided to look at the boats separately, first to find the ones that were not leaking, and second, to determine if there was oil in the tanks.

Ren Yu first taught them how to start the ship, trying one by one.

Mu Tang jumped on one of the boats, this boat is relatively simple, there is only a simple wheelhouse to shelter from the wind and rain, and in the center of the boat is a crane specially used to collect and pull fishing nets.

Mu Tang walked into the cockpit, and as soon as he entered, he heard the retching sound of phlegm stuck in the throat unique to zombies, accompanied by the sound of collision and struggle.

Although he didn't see it, Mu Tang saw the dried and blackened blood stains spreading in the cabin.

and a headless corpse lying in a corner not far away, overgrown with flies and crawling with maggots.

The corpse was highly decomposed, and the clothes on its left shoulder had been torn off, and the flesh on it had been gnawed away long ago, revealing the skeleton inside.

Flies and maggots crawled densely all over his body, eating away at what was left of his flesh, and the headless corpse still clutched a long stick tightly in its hand.

The head of the stick was broken, and it was impossible to tell what it was.

His head was cut off in its entirety, and he was nowhere to be found.

Mu Tang walked around the wooden boxes stacked high in the cabin, his toes suddenly touched something, and he looked down-

It was the missing head of the headless corpse.
